This patch enables elf note based xen startup for IA-64, which gives the
kernel an early hint for running on xen like x86 case.
In order to avoid the multi entry point, presumably extending booting
protocol(i.e. extending struct ia64_boot_param) would be necessary.
It probably means that elilo also needs modification.

Xen implements grant tables which is for sharing pages with
guest domains.
This patch implements arch specific part of grant table initialization.
and xen_alloc_vm_area()/xen_free_vm_area() which are helper functions
for xen grant table.

On ia64/xen, pointer arguments for hypercall is passed
by pseudo physical address(guest physical address.)
So such hypercalls needs address conversion functions.
This patch implements concrete conversion functions for
such hypercalls.

On ia64/xen, pointer argument for the hypercall is passed
by pseudo physical address (guest physical address.)
So it is necessary to convert virtual address into pseudo physical
address right before issuing hypercall. The frame work is called
xencomm. This patch implements arch specific part.
